South Burnett Regional Council representatives will be attending this Saturday’s Ros Gregor parkrun in Nanango to seek input into the future of vegetation beside the trail.<\/p>\n

The parkrun is held every Saturday morning along the Ros Gregor Nature Walk beside Tipperary Flat on the D’Aguilar Highway.<\/p>\n

A Council spokesperson said a large area of vegetation had been planted in the past along the western side of the track as part of a biodiversity project funded by a government grant which aimed to reconnect native ecosystems and wildlife corridors.<\/p>\n

However, since then Council has received requests to remove vegetation and maintain the area as mowed parkland.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Council wishes to understand the community\u2019s views to assist in determining how to manage and maintain this natural area in the future,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“Council is encouraging feedback from the Nanango community.<\/p>\n

“Residents can speak with staff and representatives face-to-face on Saturday or by completing a short online survey<\/b><\/a>”<\/p>\n

The Ros Gregor parkrun starts at 7:00am.<\/p>\n
